Abstract

Orbital pseudotumor (idiopathic orbital inflammation) is a clinical syn drome, in which the etiology or pathogenesis are unknown. It is rarely seen in the childhood. Clinical findings are usually acute onset, and in clude eye pain, periorbital edema, redness, and limitation of eye move ments. Diagnosis is based on clinical and radiological findings. Orbital cellulitis, malignancies, rheumatological diseases and orbital trauma should be considered in differential diagnosis. Corticosteroids are used in treatment, and response to treatment is usually rapid. In cases that do not respond to corticosteroid therapy, radiotherapy or immunosuppres sive therapy can be applied. Herein, we present a 13-year-old boy who was referred to our hospital after unsuccessful oral antibiotic treatment at another institution with a preliminary diagnosis of orbital cellulitis due to edema and redness in the orbita. Orbital pseudotumor should be kept in mind in cases unresponsive to antibiotic treatment for preseptal/ orbital cellulitis.

Özet

Psödotümör orbita (idiyopatik orbital inflamasyon), etiyolojisi ve pa togenezi tam olarak bilinmeyen bir klinik sendromdur. Çocukluk çağın da nadir olarak görülür. Klinik bulgular genellikle akut başlangıçlıdır ve göz ağrısı, periorbital ödem, kızarıklık, göz hareketlerinde kısıtlılık görü lebilir. Tanı, klinik ve radyolojik olarak konulur. Ayırıcı tanıda orbital selü lit, maligniteler, romatolojik hastalıklar ve orbital travma düşünülmelidir. Tedavide kortikosteroidler kullanılır ve tedaviye yanıt genellikle hızlıdır. Kortikosteroid tedavisine yanıt vermeyen vakalarda radyoterapi veya immünsüpresif tedavi uygulanabilir. Burada, sol gözde şişlik ve kızarıklık nedeniyle dış merkeze başvuran, orbital selülit tanısı ile oral antibiyotik tedavisi uygulanan ve şikayetlerinde gerileme olmayınca hastanemize sevk edilen 13 yaşında bir erkek olgu sunulmuştur. Preseptal/orbital se lülit nedeniyle başlanan antibiyotik tedavisine yanıt vermeyen hastalar da psödotümör orbita tanısı akılda tutulmalıdır.
